How Cathy’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to you. The therapist follows your lead, helps clarify goals, and adjusts the pace based on your needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical steps to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, and habits tied to addiction. Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of the present moment; it can ease stress and support emotion regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cathy will collaborate with you to choose methods that match your goals and preferences. She checks in about what helps and adapts plans as needed so therapy stays useful and realistic.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations. It can also let someone use shorter or phone-only contacts when schedules or bandwidth call for them. Talk with Cathy about what will work best for your routine and comfort.
